• Premises or the Noyes Cultural Arts Center, or do any nailing, boring or
screwing into the ceilings, walls or floors, without the Lessor's prior

other party hereto, said notice to be delivered not less than ninety
(90) days prior to the first day of the month of the contemplated
termination. See Appendix F.
b. Lessor may terminate this Lease for cause. "Cause" is a material
breach of the Lease which in Lessor's sole judgment is inimical to the
public interest, including, but not limited to failure to pay rent, to
provide all required insurance and indemnity performances and actions
inconsistent with the public ownership of the Leased Premises and
actions which create or may create a hazard to the public health,
welfare and safety. Lessor will provide Lessee an opportunity to cure
any default. Cure period may be up to 30 days; however, a method and
schedule to cure must be provided to the Director of Parks/Forestry &
Recreation in writing within 24 hours of Lessor's notification to the
Lessee. Lessee understands that there is no entitlement to a 30-day
cure period. If Lessee has, in Lessor's judgment made substantial
progress toward effecting a complete cure, then Lessor may grant an
additional cure period, of no more than 15 days. Thereafter, if the
cure is not effected, Lessor may terminate this Lease with 30 days
notice to Lessee unless the "cause" is aforedescribed hazard to the
public, in which case Lessor may terminate the Lease with five (5) days
notice.
c. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary elsewhere in this document,
if Lessee fails to maintain all insurance as required by this Lease,
Lessee shall, upon written notice from Lessor, cease all operations
immediately and shall have no access whatsoever to its Leased premises.
Lessor shall have no liability to Lessee for any claim of lost profits,
revenues or lost opportunities. Lessor may, but is not obligated to,
give Lessee an opportunity to comply with the insurance requirements of
this Lease. In such event, Lessor reserves the right to increase
required policy limits and/or to require Lessee to purchase additional
types of insurance if doing so is in the interests of the public
welfare. Any cure period Lessor gives regarding insurance may be given
in increments of one business day. Any cure period given does not
obligate Lessor to give additional cure period(s). Lessor shall have
the option of declaring the Lessee in default for failure to comply
with the insurance requirements of this Lease. In the event Lessee
fails to provide satisfactory evidence of insurance and Lessor has
denied access, Lessee is still liable for rent of the Leased Premises
and other charges as assessed.
10. NON -RENEWAL. Notwithstanding the provision of paragraph 10 of this
lease, Lessor may decline to renew any lease, upon 21 days written •
notice to the Lessee or sooner, in the event, in Lessor's sole
determination, Lessee's use creates a hazard to the public health,
welfare, or safety. Lessee shall be afforded the opportunity to cure
defects and/or hazards prior to non -renewal or termination of lease

requested; a certified copy of the policy to the Lessor. Lessee will
instruct the Insurance company to notify Lessor of any changes or
cancellation of Policy. The Policy will provide, in the event the
insurance should be changed or cancelled, such cancellation shall not
be effective until thirty (30) days after the Lessor has received
written notice from the insurance company(s). An insurance company
having less than an A plus Policyholder's Rating established by the
Alfred M. Best Company will not be acceptable.
All Lessees must provide evidence satisfactory to the City cf Evanston
of compliance with the insurance requirements of this Lease before or
at the signing of a new Lease and before renewing a Lease.
13. ADDITIONAL INSURANCE. Lessor reserves the right to require additional
insurance from Lessee and any Sublessees because of any increased risk,
improvements made by Lessee or any Sublessees or liability not
satisfactorily covered, in Lessor's sole opinion, by the above
insurance requirements, and lessee agrees to promptly provide same.

regarding non-discrimination, including the ADA. ADA prohibits
discrimination on the basis of disability. Reasonable accommodations

may use, apply, or retain the whole or any part of the security
deposited for the payment of any such rent in default, or for any other
sum which the Lessor may expend or be required to expend by reason of
Lessee's default including, without limitation, any damages or
deficiency in the reletting of the Leased Premises whether such damages
or deficiency shall have accrued before or after any re-entry by
Lessor. If any of the security shall be so used, applied or retained
by Lessor at any time or from time to time, Lessee shall promptly, in
each such instance, upon rendition of an invoice and/or on written
demand therefore by Lessor, pay,to Lessor such additional sum as may be
necessary to restore the security to the original amount set forth in
the first sentence of this paragraph. Except as otherwise required by
law, Lessee shall not be entitled to any interest on the aforesaid
security. In the absence of evidence satisfactory to Lessor of an
assignment of the right to receive the security or the remaining
balance thereof, Lessor may return the security to the original Lessee,
regardless of one or more assignments of this Lease. Upon the transfer

such obligation by the transferee.

direction of, or on behalf of Lessee. If any such lien or claim for
lien is filed, Lessee immediately either shall have such lien or claim
for lien released of record or, if Lessee desires to contest the amount
or validity thereof, shall deliver to Lessor a bond in form, content,
amount and issued by a surety, satisfactory to Lessor, indemnifying
Lessor and others designated by Lessor against all costs and
liabilities resulting from such lien or claim for lien and the

Lessor, Lessor, without investigating the validity of such lien, may
pay or discharge the same and Lessee shall reimburse Lessor upon

modification as distributed and/or posted.

leased premises a minimum of 25 hours weekly. Under use of the leased

2. SURCHARGE. a. All non -Evanston Residents (individuals only) are
assessed a 20% surcharge on rent. The 20% surcharge will not be
applicable to non -Evanston resident Sublessees if the Lessee

applicable to a non -Evanston resident Sublessee only if and when the
Sublessee assumes the remainder of the entire lease or a co -lease, or

place of business must be in Evanston. Organizations must attach

excess of one-half the rent charged Lessee by Lessor. A written

sublease agreement must include the payment schedule and the dollar
amount paid by Sublessee to Lessee. Community service obligations
